ES 120 | Extra Shot | 150th Anniversary of the Church Seal | Andrew Bolton

From practical legal implement to inspiring logo, what we now know as the church seal has been around since April 8, 1874. It all started with a lion, a lamb, a child, a palm tree, three continents, and some laurel leaves.  Since then it’s had several iterations... all with deep significance in the lives of church members around the world.  Grab a “cuppa” and settle in as Andrew shares the history of the church seal sprinkled with a very personal testimony of its role in his life and in the life of the church. See Andrew’s Historic Sites Foundation lecture on the History of the Church seal, here. Other Episodes ft.
